Privacy Policy

Last updated: May 31, 2026

1. Introduction

Welcome to Niftytheme. We are committed to protecting your privacy and ensuring the security of your personal information. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and safeguard your information when you visit our website or use our services.

By using our website, you consent to the data practices described in this policy.

2. Information We Collect

2.1 Account Information

Upon registration, we may collect the following account information:

  • Name
  • Email address
  • Password (hashed)
  • Profile data collected on registration

2.2 Marketplace Purchases (Third-Party)

Niftytheme.net does not sell products or accept payments. When you buy on Envato Market (ThemeForest) or Gumroad, payment and billing data are collected by that platform—not by us. We do not store payment card numbers or full billing profiles on niftytheme.net.

If you contact us about a purchase, we may receive information you choose to provide voluntarily, such as your email address, an Envato purchase code, or Gumroad order reference.

2.3 License & Product Data

If you use features on our site related to licensed products (for example, purchase verification or support for eligible items), we may process:

  • License or purchase verification data you submit
  • Domain or installation details required for validation
  • Product identifiers tied to your inquiry

This data is not collected because you paid on niftytheme.net; it supports showcase-related tools and support where applicable.

2.4 Support Data

When you interact with our support system, we collect the following support data:

  • Ticket content
  • Replies
  • Internal notes (admin-only)
  • File attachments uploaded in tickets

2.5 Contact Form Data

When you contact us through our contact form, we may collect the following personal information:

  • Name
  • Email address
  • Subject of inquiry
  • Message content
  • Timestamp of submission

2.6 Technical & Usage Data

We may automatically collect certain information about your device and how you interact with our website, including:

  • IP address
  • Browser type and version
  • Operating system
  • Pages visited
  • Time spent on pages
  • Referring website

3. How We Use Your Information

We use the information we collect for the following purposes:

  • To respond to your inquiries and provide customer support
  • To operate our product showcase and respond to product inquiries
  • To improve our website and services
  • To send you important updates about our services
  • To comply with legal obligations
  • To prevent fraud and ensure security

Where required by law (e.g. GDPR), we process your data on the following legal bases: contractual necessity (order fulfilment, account management), consent (marketing communications), legitimate interest (fraud prevention, security), and legal obligation (tax and compliance records).

4. Third-Party Services

4.1 EmailJS

We use EmailJS to process contact form submissions. When you submit our contact form, your information is sent to EmailJS for email delivery. Please review EmailJS's Privacy Policy to understand how they handle your data.

4.2 Envato Market (ThemeForest)

When you purchase items on Envato Market, Envato collects and processes personal and payment information under its own privacy policy: envato.com/privacy. Niftytheme does not receive your full payment details from Envato through routine showcase browsing.

4.3 Gumroad

When you purchase on Gumroad, Gumroad collects and processes buyer and payment information under its privacy policy: gumroad.com/privacy. Niftytheme does not process Gumroad checkouts on niftytheme.net.

4.4 Supabase

We use Supabase to host our PostgreSQL database, where account, purchase, license, and ticket data is stored. See Supabase's Privacy Policy.

4.5 Vercel

Our website and API are hosted on Vercel. Request logs may be processed on Vercel infrastructure. See Vercel's Privacy Policy.

4.6 Email Delivery

Transactional emails (order confirmations, ticket notifications) are sent via Nodemailer via a secure SMTP provider.

5. License Verification

Some eligible products may include a license verification system after a valid marketplace purchase. When installed, those products may periodically contact our servers (for example, at www.niftytheme.net/api/licenses/verify) to confirm license validity. During this process, we may collect: the license or purchase reference, the domain where the product is installed, and the server IP address. This data is used solely for license validation and fraud prevention where that feature applies, is not shared with third parties for marketing, and is retained as needed for the license period.

6. Data Storage and Security

We implement appropriate security measures to protect your personal information against unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction. However, no method of transmission over the internet or electronic storage is 100% secure.

6.1 Data Retention

We retain your personal information only for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes outlined in this policy, unless a longer retention period is required by law.

7. Your Rights and Choices

Depending on your location, you may have the following rights regarding your personal information:

  • Access: Request a copy of the personal information we hold about you
  • Correction: Request correction of inaccurate or incomplete information
  • Deletion: Request deletion of your personal information
  • Portability: Request transfer of your data to another service
  • Objection: Object to processing of your personal information

To exercise these rights, please contact us using the information provided below. To submit a request, email [email protected]. We will respond within 30 days.

8. Cookies and Tracking Technologies

We use essential cookies required for our website to function, including session and authentication cookies that keep you logged in when you use an account. We do not use advertising or tracking cookies on niftytheme.net. If you follow a Buy link to Envato Market or Gumroad, those sites may set their own cookies under their privacy policies. You can control cookie settings through your browser preferences, but disabling essential cookies may affect site functionality.

9. Children's Privacy

Our services are not intended for children under the age of 16. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 16. If you believe we have collected information from a child under 16, please contact us immediately.

10. International Data Transfers

Niftytheme is operated internationally. Your data may be transferred to and processed in countries outside your own, including the United States, where our hosting providers (Vercel, Supabase) operate. These transfers are conducted under appropriate safeguards, including Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs) as part of our sub-processors' Data Processing Agreements.

11. Contact & Data Controller

Data Controller: Niftytheme is the data controller for personal information collected through this website.

Contact: For any privacy-related requests, questions, or to exercise your rights under §7, please contact us at: [email protected] or via our Contact Page.
